my progress as I write, revise, send to my editor, re-revise, fact-check, galley-read, and promote my books, including (but not limited to) a multi-volume history of the world. While living on a farm, educating my kids, and teaching. And doing a few other things too.

And the winners are…

As I noted below, I’m going to give away three copies instead of two. So, the winners, drawn randomly from the pool of comments, are…

Jayne (“Love the books. I know the new book will be awesome!!” Thanks for that!)
Landi Martinez (“I have been waiting so long for this book!” I feel your pain.)
Daniel H. (“Even started re-reading “History of the Ancient World” to warm up for ‘Renaissance’!” A fine, fine plan.)

(Now I feel really bad about all of you who didn’t win a book.)

A couple of new updates about work and writing coming soon. Again, thank you for your enthusiasm…it is much appreciated (and very encouraging).
